Ron Graham’s Report
— for Jan-Feb-Mar (1st Quarter) 2022
This page reports my work on simplybible.com for the information of those who take a special interest in that work.
Three Visits per Minute
The website simplybible.com receives three visitors per minute. That's the average minute of course. The three visitors between them open just under five pages in that minute. Doesn't sound like much, does it? But the minutes tick over 24 hours a day non-stop. In 90 days, 129,600 minutes pass. At the average of 3 visitors per minute, that comes to 388,800 visitors in 90 days. Now that sounds like a lot, and thanks be to the Lord working with us.

Other Matters
CHURCH. We continued to hold Sunday morning services in our home, with one Christian lady still meeting regularly with us using Zoom.
VANUATU. We were blessed to have funds from certain Australian Christians sent to Tanna Island in Vanuatu to help the church there cope with the recent emergencies. Ash from the Volcano is spoiling crops and a cyclone causing acid rain added to the damage. Also, one church, who had no roof to meet under, received some of the funds for that purpose. We personally know some of these members of the church in Vanuatu.
